You Bring the Guest List.
We’ll Handle the Details.
A baby shower should be one of those days you actually get to enjoy.
You shouldn’t be watching the clock, wondering when the food is coming out, or leaving the table to check that everything is going the way you planned it.
So your coordinator settles the details with you ahead of the day... the room, the menu, your headcount, and the timing. You are welcome an hour before your guests to set up whatever you have brought, and the room is yours for three hours after that. Then the morning arrives and our team takes it from there.
You celebrate her. We’ll take care of everyone else.
Come as you are... we’ll treat you like royalty.

Pick the Room. Then Stop Thinking About It.
From an intimate shower with her closest friends to a celebration with the whole extended family, there is a room here that fits. Choose your favorite... we will worry about the rest.
We also have The High Tops, which holds forty standing beside the bar. It is the one room we would talk you out of for a shower... a shower wants a chair and a table for everybody, and that room is built for the opposite.
A Late Morning, Properly Fed
The gifts get packed away by the evening. The cake is gone by two. The food is the part of the morning everybody sits down for at the same time, so it is worth getting right.
A Queen’s Weekend Brunch runs Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 to 2:00... brioche french toast, eggs benedict, soft scrambled eggs, kept full while your guests go back for more. Add the mimosa bar and they pour their own, from juices, prosecco and champagne set out for the morning.
Tuesday through Friday we build a luncheon instead. We will plate it to the table if you would rather everybody sat down at once, set out a buffet if you would rather they got up and mingled, or pass bites around while the room fills.
Whichever you choose, your coordinator builds the menu around your guests and your budget.

Showers That Already Happened Here
You do not have to take our word for it. Here is what other families said after they held their showers in these rooms.
“We had our daughter's Baby Shower in the Library at The Crown. It was the perfect sized room for 30 guests and a book theme. The food was fabulous- we had The Queen's Brunch plus Mimosa Bar. Our guests raved about the ambiance and food. We couldn't be more pleased with the staff, service or total experience.”
“The Crown Tavern exceeded all our expectations for my sisters baby shower event. We chose the Wine Cellar due to the size of our party and it did not disappoint. Very spacious, great decor and overall good flow to the room/event. I thought it was a perk that the food/buffet could be held in a separate room. The event coordinator,Zoe, was able to accommodate our desires for a neutral table and everything was as discussed. Our food choice was the Queens brunch and it was absolutely PERFECT! We had guests raving about it and multiple trips to get more. From the salad to the protein choices, truly exceptional taste. The service was a great mix of attentiveness and hands offness. Oona, our event lead and bartender was great and helped with any questions we had. She always acted swiftly. All in all, we couldn’t have asked for a better venue and experience.”
“We help my daughter’s baby shower there are several weeks ago. From the food, to the ambience, to the servers, everything was exceptional. My guests are still commenting on how great the food was and they absolutely love the room. The library is a perfect room for a baby shower. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate several people with food allergies. I would highly recommend The Crown for an event to anyone. Zoe was wonderful to deal with as well.”
“We recently held a baby shower in the wine cellar at The Crown Tavern. The event space was beautiful and our guests expressed the same sentiment. Staff was attentive, food was delicious, my requests were all accommodated and we had no issues. It was a hot day and room was comfortably cool. The girls assigned to our event were wonderful. Our guests all told us how beautiful everything was and many remarked that they had not known about The Crown but would be sure to come back. We were very pleased with our experience. All communication was returned quickly before the event. The overall cost was very reasonable and most importantly the parents-to-be thoroughly enjoyed the event!”
“We recently hosted a baby shower in the library at the Crown Tavern. The event was a success. The staff was very accommodating always making sure everything was done to perfection. The room was “cozy but not too small for 50 people. The food was delicious and plentiful. I would host another shower there in a heartbeat. Thank you all”
“I'm from Maryland and I used the wine cellar in the basement of the restaurant to throw a baby shower for my sister. I wasn't able to view the space prior to the shower, so I really wasnt sure how it was going to be, but the space was PERFECT and it absolutely impressed. The food was absolutely delicious, and it was a perfect space for people to socialize, play games, and to decorate (although it didnt need decorations to be a great looking space). Event manager was extremely communicative, answered all of our questions, and consistently checked in with us to see if we needed any help. We were set up with bluetooth for music and a mic for the event. Excellent venue!”
“We recently had our daughter's baby shower in the Library at the Crown Tavern and everything was top notch from the easy booking, the food and drinks were deliciious, the service was fantastic, and the quaint room created a warm ambiance! We were able to get in an hour early and decorate and all staff were so welcoming. I would highly recommend The Crown if you are planning an upcoming event or party!”
“We recently had my daughter‘s baby shower in the wine cellar at the Crown Tavern. The food was delicious. The service was excellent. The room was private and beautiful. We had 46 people and everyone fit comfortably! We were allowed to get in an hour early to set up. The wait staff was so accommodating and helpful. It was a beautiful day!! Thank you Crown Tavern!!”
“Just hosted my daughter-in-law's baby shower there. The food was great, and the buffet was replenished without having to ask. The menu was also able to be customized without difficulty. I chose The Crown because everyone I know who had an event there was very pleased. Thank You!”

Baby shower questions
How much does a baby shower cost?
Menus start at $29 per person, and your final per-person price depends on the menu and beverage package you choose. A 20% service charge applies and taxes are folded into your quote. There is no room fee on top, so the per-person price is the price.
Is there a room fee?
No. No room fee, no linen fee, and no credit-card fee. You pay per person for the food and drink you choose, and a $100 deposit holds the date and comes straight back off your final bill.
How many guests can you accommodate?
From about fifteen up to two hundred. The Britannia Room seats 32, the Library seats 65, the Wine Cellar seats 90, and the Garden Bar & Patio seats 120 and holds 200 standing. Most showers here land between thirty and sixty.
How long do we have the room?
Three hours, and most showers use all of it. That sits on top of the hour beforehand for setting up... so if your guests arrive at eleven, you are in the room from ten and the morning runs through to two.
Can we bring our own decorations and get in early to set up?
Yes to both. You are welcome an hour before your guests arrive... balloon arches, a gift table, a games table, a dessert display, whatever you have planned. Tell your coordinator what you are bringing so the room is ready for you when you get here.
Can we bring our own cake?
Bring it in, and we will not charge you to cut and serve it. Plenty of families have one made somewhere they love, or somebody in the family bakes it. Bring it with you when you come to set up and we will take it from there.
Do you do brunch for a shower, or only lunch and dinner?
Brunch, and it is what most showers here choose. A Queen’s Weekend Brunch runs Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 to 2:00. Tuesday through Friday we build a luncheon instead, plated, buffet, or family-style. Add a mimosa bar to either and your guests pour their own.
Can you work around food allergies?
Send them over with your final count and the kitchen builds around them. Tell your coordinator who they belong to as well... it is easier for the servers to look after a guest by name than to go hunting for a raised hand.
Do you host showers on weekdays?
We do, Tuesday through Sunday. We are closed on Mondays. A weekday shower is often the easier booking when your date is tight, and a plated lunch suits a smaller list better than a buffet does.
What happens after I send an inquiry?
Zoe, our event coordinator, comes back to you with the rooms open on your date and what fits your headcount. You pick a room and a menu, she sends a quote, and the $100 deposit holds it. Nothing is booked and nothing is owed until you say yes.
Something we have not covered? Ask our event team.
Her Shower. Your Guest List.
We’ll Handle the Rest.
The best dates fill early. Tell us a little about the shower you are planning and we will come back with the room that fits, a menu to suit your guests, and one per-person price with nothing hiding underneath it.
No commitment... just tell us what you are planning.
